The year 2018 was a fruitful one for PolyU. Our faculty members and students received numerous awards and notable recognition, demonstrating our commitment to and success in the pursuit of excellence in education, research and knowledge transfer. We also continued to forge new partnerships with leading universities around the world in order to support the further development of regional and global communities.

PolyU will start implementing its Strategic Plan 2019/20-2024/25 in 2019. I am confident that with our new strategic objectives, PolyU is heading in the right direction for the future. With the support of the PolyU community, donors, alumni and friends, I look forward to working closely with colleagues in realising our vision of becoming a leading university that advances and transfers knowledge, and provides the best holistic education for the benefit of Hong Kong, the nation and the world.
